Hello
My name is Maura. I have been working with children for 10 years now. I have been tutoring for the past three years. I have a lot of experience working with children who are on the Autism Spectrum. I also have experience with children grades Prek-5. I make the tutoring approach fun but really learning at the same time. If you have any questions please contact me. I respond fastly to email and phone calls.
When working with the children on the Autism Spectrum I did activates that where hands on them to understand. I created games and lesson that where simple and fun. The children I worked with where Kindergarten to Middle school years. I worked at a school for 7 months during this time I learned so much.
I have been a nanny/tutor since I was 14 years old and now I am 22 years of age. I love making the learning experience fun for a child. One thing I like to do is have the child create works for them to practice. I have them write the multiplication cards so they are practicing writing and saying the facts in their heads. I made everything personal for the needs of each child.
I also work closely with the family and the school the child is attending to make sure a child is meeting their full potential. The child always comes first in my mind.
Lastly, I keep daily and weekly logs with the child to see how they are progressing or regressing over the time period. I give the parent a copy of the information so they can see how there child has improved over the time period and what they still need to work on.
Hope to hear from you
Maura
